Re: Rat repair.

How does the song go... "If it weren't for bad luck i'd have no luck at all...Gloom DISREPARE and agony on me"

When i installed the front Fox shocks i kinda felt that the shock bodys were a little long, sitting on the ground i have about 4" of compression travel but about 6.5" of travel to the bump stops, but decided to wait till i could get to the rear shocks today, installed one shock and jacked up the rear end, there is only about 2.75" of compression travel left, obviously something isn't right so i called my local 4X4 place and they called BDS, they asked me to verify that the numbers on the shock body are correct, yep they are the correct number but i still have a problem, so another call to BDS and the tech guy is hashing it out with the engineers to try and figure out the problem, more delays..

On a good note, I got the longer front brake hoses installed today, man they are a pita!
